Mr Blame-Everyone-Else (3)

Since Dr Mahathir Mohamad became the Pakatan Harapan chairperson, he has been denying his involvement in any of the wrongdoings during his tenure. The 92-year-old is finally revealing to the world that he is Malaysia’s weakest prime minister in history.

In a meet-and-greet session organized by Hindraf, Mahathir laid the entire blame on MIC’s longest-serving president for failing to uplift the Indian community. He admitted that during his tenure of 22 years, he failed to control the MIC leader. Mahathir’s statement echoes DAP’s Prof Ramasamy who also says Mahathir tried to assist the Indian community but failed due to Samy Vellu. [...]

In Mahathir’s memoir entitled “A Doctor In The House”, he dedicated a whole chapter on Anwar Ibrahim’s abnormal sexual craving. Mahathir wrote, “I may have made many mistakes, but removing Anwar was not one of them.”

In 2015, Mahathir said that everyone should accept the Federal Court’s decision on Anwar’s appeal against sodomy, saying that the decision was right and perpetrators should be punished as per the law. Now, after just two years, he regrets his action.

With Mahathir’s numerous U-turns this year, bookstores should shift all Mahathir’s memoirs from the biography section to ‘fiction’. With so many mistakes made under Mahathir, which he readily admits, how sure are we of his second coming under Harapan?
